Pioneers of the Sherman family

James Sharman & his wife Mary Kerrison arrived in Quebec from Suffolk County, England in 1836 with their 9 children. Mary died shortly after arrival in Sherbrooke, Quebec. James and his family settled in Victoria ( Bury) Quebec, on land of the British American Land Company. All 9 children were baptized with the surname of SHARMAN. George Sherman (Sharman) has used the surname Sherman down threw the years. Why I don't know. The surname Sharman is very English and Sherman tends to be a Jewish surname in the USA.

Origin of last name Sherman

The surname should be SHARMAN for all members of this family. Perhaps census takers or Ministers wrote Sherman using an E instard of an A in their records and it was never corrected. I have seen written about the Father James Sharman that he taught all his children to read and write. His children are; Henry, George, Mary Ann, Sarah, Ebenezer, Elizabeth, William, James.All the children were baptized in Wenhaston & Holton St Peter, Suffolk, England with the surname of SHARMAN. The ship's manifest also lists their surname as SHARMAN. Harriet Kerrison is listed as a daughter of James Sharman's wife Mary Kerrison as illegitimate.
